The Importance Of Hoof Health
The horse’s hoof is a marvel of anatomical engineering. Designed to carry horses swiftly and efficiently over long distances at speeds sufficient to escape predators, a horse's hoof is also one of its most vulnerable body parts.

A healthy hoof can easily support a horse, even though hundreds of pounds of force press on each square inch of hoof tissue with every step. But when the hoof is injured or diseased, the horse must compensate its posture, weight bearing, and even head and neck position to attempt to relieve pressure on painful areas. More weight is put on the “good” hooves, as the horse tries to compensate for pain.

Soft-Ride boots are a solution for simple management of foot lameness problems in horses. The gel orthotic “cushion” molds to the bottom of the hoof, providing firm contact with the frog and dissipating harmful vibrations. Use a standard hoof knife or rotary tool to contour the orthotic to ensure a good fit and maximum comfort for the horse.

Soft-Ride Equine Comfort BootThe Soft-Ride Equine Comfort Boot is the horse health industry’s premier system for hoof care needs of all breeds, sizes, and ages of horses. Constructed of high-performance synthetic materials and made in ten generous sizes, the boot slips on and off easily, and stays snug with sturdy Velcro™ straps. The tough outer shell gives the horse a “rocker” base of support while a removable, washable orthotic insert cushions and supports the bottom of the hoof. Soft-Ride Boots provide support, protection, and comfort for horses with needs such as:

Why Should I Choose A Soft-Ride Boot For My Horse?
There are a huge variety of uses that a Soft-Ride Boot can help with. Here are a few examples:

Travel- Riding on Soft-Ride gel orthotics isolates turbulence and vibrations. The horse arrives more rested and ready to perform. Stress to the animal is a major factor in its overall performance. Horses are less stressed when traveling with Soft-Ride boots.

Pain Therapy- When a horse is in pain, immediate comfort is always the first priority. Choose Soft-Ride Equine Comfort Boots to relieve suffering from a wide variety of hoof conditions and disorders. Use with or without shoes. The tough outer boot works in tandem with an orthotic insert system.

Stalling- Natural Mechanics & Self Messaging effect: The Soft-Ride deep gel orthotics enable the horse to do subtle weight shifts, (by loading or unloading the gel). Horses rely on movement to aid natural blood circulation in the hoof, so when they are standing in the stall they need additional assistance. Modern show ground facilities are being converted to easily cleaned asphalt and concrete stall flooring. This is hard on horses hooves and joints. Ease your horse’s comfort and increase blood circulation with Soft-Ride Equine Comfort Boots.

Which Orthotic Insert Should I Choose?
A Soft-Ride Standard-Density orthotic insert is included with the purchase of every Soft-Ride Equine Comfort Boot. This gel-like cushion comforts and protects the hoof, making Soft-Ride boots truly unique. To provide comfort for unique conditions, Soft-Ride interchangeable orthotic inserts are available in 4 desities, plus a new dual-density insert. The ability to change inserts to alter the density level allows you to fine-tune the boot for therapeutic needs that change as the horse's condition changes.

What Do Customers Say About Soft-Ride Equine Comfort Boots?We encourage clients to use Soft-Ride Boots for general transportation purposes, whether it is across the country to the Quarter Horse Congress or oversees to the World Equestrian Games. Just as you would use a standing support bandage to protect the limbs, we recommend using Soft-Rides to support and protect the feet.

Equine Sports Medicine
When we make a long haul the horses need some time to recover. In the past they've been slightly sore, and not ready to go work right away. However, with the Soft-Ride Comfort Boots the horses stepped off the trailer fresher, with more energy. The difference the Soft-Ride Comfort Boots made was significant. I highly recommend them.
